Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the federal civil appeal was admissible despite the cantonal court's view that the dispute value was below CHF 30,000.
Decisione estratta
The appeal was admissible because the capitalized value of the recurring child support claim exceeded CHF 30,000.
Motivazione estratta
For recurring payments, the dispute value equals the capital value; where duration is uncertain, it is twenty times the annual amount. A monthly child support of CHF 510 yields CHF 122,400.
